View Full Version : Two Mules For Sister Sara sleepyhead 08-24-2008, 09:13 PM This was requested so I thought I'd give it a go. Not really happy with so it far this to be honest - any suggestions. Bisky 08-24-2008, 10:03 PM I quite like it mate, especially the back. I think just clints head on the front would look good, just a suggestion, cheers metamate 08-24-2008, 11:06 PM Lovely setup. You should consider doing more of Eastwood's westerns using the same template. Can I ask how you achieved the faded look over Clint on the front and back? Slipmeister 08-25-2008, 12:40 AM For me the text stands out way too much so I'd work on that. I love the style and images as is...so work on the text a little then see where you are. sleepyhead 08-25-2008, 05:45 AM Thought I'd try a totally different front to see what it looks like. When you say text Slip what exactly do you mean? All of it, the TT, names or synopsis? batboysmatboy 08-25-2008, 05:50 AM I like the look, it really works. I agree, the text does stand out too much. Maybe fade the text, or use a brown shade and a cream shade, instead of red and black. Really do like the look. Agree with metamate, you could do an Eastwood collection using this design as a template. Added below after your last post I was typing this while you were posting second version. Liked first better, however this front is interesting. Maybe keep first front, work this front onto the back. sleepyhead 08-25-2008, 06:02 AM Thanks batboy - I like the first front better myself I was just messing around with some ideas. kaptinjack 08-25-2008, 09:22 AM Hi Sleepyhead I like the faded drawing of Clint on the back. Not sure about the movie photos though. I like the original front cover with the gun and necklace. Maybe for the spine title if you used a faded color like you used for the back drawing that might work. Just a few suggestions. Hope it helps ! Bisky 08-25-2008, 09:47 AM I like the front alot better now myself, I`d maybe try fading the objects on the front so they dont stand out so much, lookin forward to seein how this one goes mate. Slipmeister 08-25-2008, 10:17 AM When you say text Slip what exactly do you mean? All of it, the TT, names or synopsis? All of the text, except the synopsis. Too striking a contrast to their background... try a different colour or blend them slightly. sleepyhead 08-25-2008, 09:28 PM Thanks for the feedback guys. Update: Any better/worse? ulookingatme 08-25-2008, 10:12 PM Really like this update sleepy, this front is much better :) batboysmatboy 08-25-2008, 10:30 PM Really like this update sleephead. It looks really really good. kaptinjack 08-26-2008, 09:37 AM It's a lot better but I think the gun on the back cover looks out of place . Plus the solid color looks wrong. How bout fading the gun and then see what it looks like DJPaZ 08-26-2008, 11:51 AM the cover looks great!:):):) but the gun on the back, does seem a little out of place..i mean the old look in the cover doesn't seem to match with the colors of the gun..that's all.. anyways, great work mate..!! boneapart 08-26-2008, 12:57 PM The update is awsome... But I agree that the gun needs to blend in with the rest of the back...So come on, I know you can do it...:thumbup: sleepyhead 08-26-2008, 05:57 PM OK guys thanks for your input. Quick update on the Gun and Rosary. dragonbane 08-26-2008, 08:13 PM looks great sleepy :thumbup: batboysmatboy 08-27-2008, 05:38 AM Makes a big difference. It looks better and better with each update. Good job. kaptinjack 08-28-2008, 01:58 PM The gun on the back cover. I think you either need to make it smaller or get rid of it. If you got rid of the gun then you could space the movies summary out a bit more.Otherwise it's pretty good. Bisky 08-29-2008, 01:02 PM Looks brilliant mate, the front and the gun look so much better. boneapart 08-29-2008, 01:42 PM Looking great... But I agree, make the gun smaller so that it doesn't cover the pics... kaptinjack 08-29-2008, 04:41 PM Looks like my request is keeping you all busy !!!!! Thanks for the time and effort in making the cover. I know it's not quite finished.but it's getting there sleepyhead 08-29-2008, 09:21 PM Thanks guys - OK smaller gun it is then :) ......and that's a wrap. |
